"While Senator Obama's two years in the U.S. Senate certainly entitle him to vote against funding our troops, my service and experience combined with conversations with military leaders on the ground in Iraq lead me to believe that we must give this new strategy a chance to succeed because the consequences of failure would be catastrophic to our nation's security."

But, McCain being McCain, he can't help himself and goes the next step in the statement's kicker:

"By the way, Senator Obama, it's a 'flak' jacket, not a 'flack' jacket."

Which is to say, "there is only one of us in this argument who has ever worn the uniform." (my words)

And if you still don't get it, a McCain aide blows away the anthill with, well, a rocket.

Facts:
1. No terrorist attack on U.S. soil since 9/11.
2. Tax revenues up as a result of tax cut.
3. Continued job growth
4. Dow at highest ever
Geebee, again, the personal attacks do NOTHING for your case but weaken it. I think Obama is a GREAT speaker, even better than Clinton, but would not vote for him (nor Clinton) because he's inexperienced (#1) and his views are the most liberal in Congress. Not a good mixture. How about a friendly debate rather than name-calling?

"9/11 was planned on Bill Clinton's watch, after all." HAHAHAHA. First off, your dumbazzes were in charge for nine months when it happened. Secondly, you idiot Republicans whined and moaned when Clinton tried to bomb the al Qaeda terrorist training camps in '99. If you morons weren't so interested in BJ's, then we might have had al Qaeda to the point where 9/11 didn't happen. You guys have an hilarious view of history. Monica was MUCH more important to you than national security, remember?

1. All significant terrorist attacks take many years to get going. You can't rely on that. We won't know for years whether we are doing a good job with terrorism or not.
2. Who cares about tax revenues? It's the deficit that matters, which is AT AN ALL-TIME HIGH. You guys need to study economics. If I pay $2 million for something, and sell it for $1 million, my revenues are $1 million!!! Hurrah Hurrah! Pointless. 3. Job growth is pathetic compared to Clinton. Look it up. 4. Stock market is pathetic compared to Clinton. Look it up. Finally, "inexperienced" is a joke. The WPE (Worst President Ever), Dubya, of course, was governor of one of the largest states in the country, and son of a president, and is an absolute failure. Irrelevant.

Oh, boo hoo. The mean ole' Righties are mocking me and callin' me names. Boo Hoo. Good gawd man, is that best you can do? Make fun of my online "handle"?!?
Yup, it's clear for all to see. The racists, the bigots, the Klan, The NeoNazis. The haters. Every Archie Bunker stereotype Norman Lear ever thought of is alive and well and living within George Bush's Reich Wing Party.

This country is on life support. To continue to support the current adminstration you have to be either:
1 a criminal
2 stupid
3 a stupid criminal
Not even Bush Sr wants a piece of this mess.
No terrorist attack since 911? Oh so it's only about USA? I thought it was about saving the world from terrorists?
The reason they have gotten away with murder is due to Americans being really stupid and brainwashed.
You know something, LIONS WANT TO KILL YOU IN YOUR SLEEP.
Why aren't we worried about them?

Dennis Hey on the surface we look great but look under the hood. The value of the dollar How much money we owe to China, the trade defecit is wacked, the debt ceiling off the charts I can go on and on and on about the Bush world. We are in deep deep trouble.

Dennis you are lying about Massachusetts. They have the highest education level. The best school system in the nation, believe it or not the most religionist in the nation, the highest income in the nation. They also have the strongest families in the nation. Sorry but that's the fact. Being in a state like Georgia makes you look for something better. I did no look this up my wife did it because she is fed up with the school system in Georgia which is at the bottom so believe it.

We, PurgeCongress.com, believe that
McCain is a hero but clueless.
We believe that Obama is simply clueless.
We, PurgeCongress.com, believe that it's time to purge Congress of the self-serving actions, direction and ideologies that are bad for America, democracy and the free world.
We believe that McCain and Obama are bad for America, democracy and the free world.

Oh here we go. LOL. 1) Have you worked for an engineering company? Physicists RUN the MBA's. For life. Get used to it. Oh and PS. There are lots of upper management that hold engineering/science/math degrees. And I know how to deal with professional people and I have worked for the best companies in the WORLD. I bet you just lick envelopes shut Gee Bee. HAHA. Just be careful. Choose your battles wisely. Don't hate what you can't have.

Dennis, you got burned on Mass. Senior is correct. I didn't catch your statement earlier regarding that. They have the lowest divorce rate, and they are the best educated. It's no coincidence that they are predominantly Democrat. Let's look at the Republican stronghold -- the South, known for its horrible education systems and bigotry. It's no coincidence that these people are mostly Republicans.

Aha! I can tell by your post that you ARE a grunt, aren't you??? "I know how to deal with professional people"...ha.
1. Yes, I have worked for an engineering company..the largest in the U.S. and the world in what they do. Yes, many upper executives do hold engineering degrees, but none of them make fun of MBAs -- most of them hold MBAs. Your type is the kind they stick in the corner and try to communicate with as sparingly as possible.
We'll never know, obviously, but, sight unseen, I'll take my financial situation over yours. You ever heard the phrase "All hat, no cattle"??

Do you even have an engineering/science/math degree? And what company? Walmart?!? LOL. MY financial situation is very good actually. MBA is a joke man. GET OVER IT. HAHAHAHAHAH. Just because you went to SUNY Cortland or whatever. Don't get your little panties in a bunch. MIT Rules. Don't forget that. Fag.

I've never said that an MBA was that big of a deal...you're the one who probably has your diplomas attached to your shirt as you walk around the office. I've seen your type a million times. And a million times, they never go anywhere. You're not in management, are you? It's pretty easy to tell. Fag...ha...who are you, Ann Coulter? Like I'm even supposed to believe that you have any of the supposed degrees you anonymously post online. Sad.

As to decision to go into Iraq there are sound arguments both pro and anti. For instance, clear Saddam did not have WMD's or nuclear weapons and would have found it difficult to get them. On other hand, if he had done one or both of developed WMD/nuclear capability, and/or allied with Al Queda, we could have a mess even bigger than the one we have now. As to implementation, don't know of any credible person who believes the job--through no fault of the American serviceman and servicewoman--has been anything except utterly and completely botched. And, like it or not, the buck stops at the desk of the President.
However, we need to remember that President Bush is not running for re-election. The choice will be among a new cast of characters. Some have been around a few years. Some have been around forever. What we need to hone in on are Capability, Character, Knowledge, Judgement and other Attributes that will make a good President. Then, we need to hope and pray that whomever is elected does a good job in making correct decisions and then implementing them in a proper way.

Believe it or not Mr. Know it all, Walmart does have engineers...obviously civil engineers had to construct the building. And then you have the industrial engineers and so on. I bet you have a business degree. Are you an MBA graduate of Harvard perchance?

Dear Mr. Project Management,
I am sorry to hear that you work at at engineering firm. That lacks a real title. For future reference Rex Tillerson is way better. And cooler, than your Warren Buffett. And Rex Tillerson has an engineering degree as well. In civil engineering. And, since you don't think MBAers are dense, if I recall, ExxonMobil has been posting record profits? Maybe I'm hearing things. I regret to inform you that ExxonMobil>>>>> Puny Engineering Firm run by an MBA. And I bet you are the chief engineer that everyone reports to. Or do they just give you their crappy Excel work for you to make it better..or better yet..Microsoft Project Manangement. I bet you're one of those people that plays with Excel ALL DAY!!!! Woohoooooooo. You better hope an engineer doesn't become president because your job will be outsourced faster than you can rethink this sentence. I am sorry to hear that you work at an engineering firm versus a company.
Hope all goes well with that.
Regards,
The Physicist who just totally put your MBA butt back into its pathetic corner. Ha.
P.S. You shouldn't expose that you have an MBA. Well, I could tell annyways that you had one just by how you acted. You are all the same. Inbreds I swear.

Yes and ExxonMobil is also ranked on the Forbes Global 2000. Oh and I quote"I have worked for an engineering company..the largest in the U.S. and the world in what they do" Right. And you said you told me you worked at a FIRM not a company. Well someone is tripping over their words and for your company being one of the largest in the world at what they do, they should be on the global list then huh? Sorry. You just got SCHOOLED Gee Bee. HAHAHA.

for all you conservatives who would like some understanding why the liberals are so vitriolic see on utube the lecture of "EVAN SAYET", "HOW MODERN LIBERALS THINK"..explains their utopian vision reject all fact of logic,reason,and decency side with right and your wrong...best way to eliminate rational thought..prove right is not right...prove wrong is not wrong..devalue everything so that evil and good are equal..

Rex Tillerson? Exxon Mobil? Ick...
Rex Tillerson cool? Over Warren Buffett? You have GOT to be kidding me! Buffett would pay Tillerson's yearly salary out of his wallet on a Sunday....
Sorry to tell you that you're way off on my job, but I like the effort...I actually won't have the job much longer -- you're right -- but it will be because I'm retiring in about 3-4 years. And I'm less than 41....so, not so worried about the outsourcing thing, even if it happens tomorrow. So, while you are bantying around, bragging about your degree, I'll be playing golf and fishing...inbred, indeed. Good day!

Uh, no....you really should take business classes...this is embarassing having to school you on business. Just because a company is a private one, does not mean that they are small, and private companies aren't included on the Forbes Global 2000. Wow, this is painful, I feel like I'm talking to a small child...This engineering firm has around 3500 engineers worldwide, and yes, they are the biggest at the specific engineering that they do in the world...75% of the world's business the last time I checked. Maybe you should study business instead of making fun of it...you are really showing that you are a back-room number-cruncher and obviously are allowed nowhere near the business side of your company. Yikes.

LOL..yep, sure...good luck in your imaginary world...two degrees from MIT...retired at 34...LOL. Wow, you are amazing...what, you're not a professional fisherman and a professional golfer, and have MORE money than Warren Buffett? Ha. I'm done. Later.

annonymous
you're lyyying. why does someone want to brag about early retirement. it means you're either lazy, can't keep a job or your mama left you some money. and corecting one's spelling (especially on one of these) just makes you look silly.

What's embarrassing is that you continuously challenge someone who has a Ph.D and works at a better company. Mine eats yours for breakfast. Public or private it doesn't matter. Yours is on the crappy list. Period. I already aced the business classes. No need to learn more. I already know all there is to know about straight lines and Excel. I like how you're trying to boast about your company. This is great. And they're the best at what they do because you're the best at what you do right? You help the engineers with their Excel? Do you know how to put in the fancy colors and stuff and make it real pretty for your fancy presentation in your ralph lauren suit while I sport a Gucci one? Please. Mr. In ferior. Go entertain your wife or something. Or do you not have one since you became so fat from all those stressful years obtaining an MBA? I bet accounting was a real hard one huh? Oh! And what about calculating taxes? Those can be real hard. Percentages are always a tough time. I get 15 pimples just thinking about them. Tell me...just HOW do you do it sir?

Gee, I love President Bush. He is a strong leader and a kind and moral man. Anything the others could do to be more like him would only make me want to vote for them more. I am among MILLIONS who are keeping our powder dry while the likes of (some of you) burn yourselves out with Hate.

Everyone hates President Bush. They blame him for everything that going wrong, like they had know part in it. They all ways talk about their experience but won't tell you that they were there to help mess things up.There should be term limits. But if you want to blame someone for the Middle East than blame Jimmy Carter for starting the mess we are in now.Then you can blame every President after him for not doing it right.

Bush the greatest president ever? Tell that to the 3,437 families that lost their kids. (Not including the 8 or more today.)
How the man can sleep at night is beyond me.
I simply can't believe despite the advent of the internet, how many people are still so brainwashed.
Sad so sad.

Ron, your have no understanding of the middle east. Back in the 50's Anglo-Arab Oil which is now Brithish Petroleum had oil fields in Iran. The were keeping 93% of the profits. The Iranians wanted a 50/50 split. Britain didn't want that so they got the US to help through out the government and place the Shah in power. When the Iranians took over the American Embassy it was in their eyes, restoring what had been wrong since the 50s. Ron Paul was right, what caused 9/11 was our foreign policy for the past 100 years.

gottobekidding, I wouldn't put my life on the line for feaks like you. In fact, I wish we would send you to Iraq so you can live in that society and experience the "freedom" those folks have had for hundreds of years. But guess what, we have guys who care about our freedom despite freaks like you. And yes they gave their lives for freaks like you since World War I and on, unfortunately. That's a reality.
So, 3,437 families lost their loved ones defending your freaky outlook. I guess you would rather support extremist that killed over 300,000 people - those families miss their loved one too.
You Democraps are so freakin' stupid. You are so self-centered that you don't give a #^&^% about other people's lives.
Thanks for those who cared enough to give their lives for another. You wouldn't understand that. If it were left up to you, we would be in a government that would take you and torture you and hang you in public - remember Sadam?

Lou Bob, if you really knew who I am you would think differently. You are the one who's swallowed the neo-con cool aid. And as far as an education, I put bottom dollar on me being more educated than you and more informed than you.
Now, do you remember the Clintons? I worked for David Watkins who put them into politics. Once I met them, it turned me into a Republican. And as far as those "3,00" is that a number? Oh, I forgot your a Democrap! And yes, over 3,000 died for our freedom from having terrorists killing us here. And yes, they are also dying for those in Iraq who don't want another 300,000 people tortured and killed by another Sadam.
And it's people like you who will start WWWIII since you turn your face from reality and caused what is currently happening in Iraq. Do your remember Carter and Clinton and what they did when we were attacked? They did nothing and that we're there now doing something! READ AND GET INFORMED you coward!

Victor, the tragically funny thing about your post is the fact that we now live in a country where your e-mails, telephone calls, credit card transactions, presciption drugs are all monitored by the government. They can "declare" that you are an enemy combatant and search your home without a warrant, take you into custody without bringing any formal charges, ship you off to Gitmo, and torture the **** out of you until you tell them what they want to hear, regardless of it's basis in fact. This adminstration has behaved exactly how Bin Laden wanted them to. We are disorganized, disabled and delusional. Bush - worst President in History, and most likely for hundreds of years to come, if we can survive until he's gone.

seigard, do you know of ARAMCO? My father was one of the first to build ARAMCO in Saudi Arabia. And after years of putting American dollars into that region and changing the economy of that region to the better, the Arabs threatened to take the oil fields and give it to the Russians if we didn't give them up. So, ARAMCO gave in and gave the Arabs over 50% control at that time. Now the Arabs have it all. So what happened in Iran is what the Iranians learned from the Arabs in Saudi Arabia - let the Americans put in major dollars to build the initial infrastructure and then take it from them. Your figure of a 93% profit margin must come from a liberal or uneducated source since that amount wouldn't cover the initial investment. Maybe you haven't take a course in economics or business to understand that principle.
And seigard, nope, I'm not fat. I weigh 150, am 5'8"and have more muscle tone than most of you McDonald-burger "feed-your-face" sit-on-your-ass liberals.
By the way, I server in the Special Forces in the Army - does that give you clue on my behavior or tolerance of your type? Oh, I forgot, you're a stupid Democrap.
And I'm not in some "deep anger", I'm just part of the current culture war and guess what side I'm on? Oh, I forgot, your a Democrap! You don't understand that your culture supports hip-hop that degrades women and the way you present yourself would give any extreme Muslim credence in seeing us, you, as Satan. And that's why there's a culture war. If Muslims took over, you would be the first they would take out. And we wouldn't want that.
So, be thankful for those 3,00, oooopppps that's a stupid Lou Bob Democrap number, it's over 3,000 that have died to give you the chance to hip-hop and offer nothing of substance to our society.

Guys, it's been fun!!! Little do you know that I might be part of that "secret" Bush organization trying to flush people like you out through the internet. Don't be surprised if guys in dark suits and sunglasses knock on your door tomorrow and haul you off and torture you until you promise not to listen to hip-hop again.
WWWHhhhhheeeeee, you guys are so cooooolllll!
KNOCK, KNOCK,... don't answer the door!

The morons and the haters went after Abe Lincoln. I don't imagine things were too fun for him toward the end. You brainwashed haters are among the same cut of people. Viva Bush. America needs you now, more than ever.

gottobekidding, are you threatening me? I captured your email and will report your abuse on this site. Your true personality has come out and yes, I do understand what FRAG means your freakin' Democrap!

Really... LOL @ "Threatening" and "Abuse" and "Victor" saying "Don't be surprised if guys in dark suits and sunglasses knock on your door tomorrow and haul you off and torture you until you promise not to listen to hip-hop again. WWWHhhhhheeeeee, you guys are so cooooolllll! KNOCK, KNOCK,... don't answer the door!"
...ya ****

I think Geebee and Dr. Freedom should get together and see who has the better double wide trailer. Geebee is as smart as a bag of hammers and Dr. Freedom thinks genocide is the answer to all the problems we have created. Maybe they can put down thier can of beer, throw on a clean tank top and walk over to the library to use the internet and respond to my comment.

Ah, Chris, easy there, redneck. Do you actually have anything to bring to the table, or are you just the daring type to call me an idiot over the internet...I assume you are a Republican, as you probably don't have the balls to do your own fighting, just as in Iraq.
So, bring it, or I'll assume you're just an inbred redneck Repub like the other bigots on this board.

OK, Chris, let me guess...you support the war, as long as you aren't in it (thus, a chickenhawk), you can't actually refute any political positions until you listen to Rush on Monday, and you are an inbred redneck? Bring something to the table or move along and raise that confederate flag up over your house....

Hey Chris, you spelled "their" incorrectly...I know, those redneck schools don't put a high priority on readin' and writin'....but I bet you can recite the Pledge of Allegiance in your sleep, and recite Bible verses like nobody's business...where in the Bible does it say that it's cool to be a bigot, to send people to die for your own stupidity, to screw the poor, to kill innocent people sitting in their homes in Iraq? I'm just a heathen, so I'm naive about religion...please, enlighten me on this...

C'mon, Chris! Cat got your tongue? OH, I forgot, is Rush not on tomorrow? No problem, I can wait until Tuesday so you can come up with some arguments...you right-wingers are so cute when you try to branch out on your own.

Now, Chris, when you called me "dumber than a bag of hammers", you didn't "lift" that from the Coen brothers' movie "O' Brother Where Art Thou", did you? That would be a big no-no for a right-wing nutcase, as the Coen brothers, as all brilliant thinkers are, are crazy liberals! Stay away! Keep to the redneck thought process of Rush, Uncle Dick, Dubya, McCain, Rumsfeld, Rice...the true geniuses of our time....

My,my, the anti-war zealots have their panties in a wad. I wonder how the AW twits would react, if they lived in Venezuela? Or Russia? I hear the landscape for homosexuals is not so favorable in Russia. Obviously, the Russian media has not been exposed to Rosie. God help them!

My,my, the anti-war zealots have their panties in a wad. I wonder how the AW twits would react, if they lived in Venezuela? Or Russia? I hear the landscape for homosexuals is not so favorable in Russia. Obviously, the Russian media has not been exposed to Rosie. God help them!

Obviously, the homosexual condition manifests the trait in other, more obvious ways. Failure to recognize gender, is an obvious indication of severe psychological problems. Rosie is obviously a butch, without the equipment. No wonder this person hates society, that she lacks the anatomy to achieve her illusion.

McCain is a flack for Bush -and because McCain flushed his credibility by being Bush's flack, McCain will never ever be president - hell, he probably won't even get the nomination. No Republican will have a chance in '08.

The illusion of homosexuality as normal requires that we ignore the facts of the NCIC. The NCIC, a tracking service of the FBI, reports that, in a typical year, roughly a third of child molestation cases are comitted by admitted, practicing, homosexuals. What does this mean? It tells us that roughly a third of of Child molestation cases are committed by roughly 3% of the American population. What does that mean for you and Me? It tells us that the Gay man in your school, or church, or Boy Scout troop, is roughly 15 times a greater risk to molest your children, than other, normal men. Yet, we are asked, as parents, or grandparents, to accept this risk in the name of diversity! What insanity! Why should any parent accept a threat to their children to protect the rights of the perverts? In my view, the perverts have no rights, other than to face the firing squad. I would direct the naysayers to the Catholic Church, which has had some experience with homosexual priests. It has not been a model for the future!

Regarding your "FBI Study", my BS sensor went off. Evidence please?
In general, I have found that those who complain loudest about homosexuality have definite, shall we say, curiosities, in that direction. Seen it a multitude of times. So, Mr. gonzo39, would you suggest we look to the (former) leader of the biggest evangelist church in America for guidance here?

Brilliant quote gonzo "I wonder how the AW twits would react, if they lived in Venezuela?" So, is your point that you would rather have our government mimic Venezuela? How Cheney of you...the freedom-limiting weasels that you probably call your heroes would be so proud of you. Meanwhile, you might want to see a shrink with your, uh, homosexual issues. Thou doth protest too much....

I respectfully submit, what positive results from the homosexual condition? Is their any result which is only available to homosexuals? Most of us were taught from birth that each person is solely responsible for their conduct. I was not taught that some folks are immune from responsibilty. I am a simple person. I believe that any person with a brain, is responsible. Those without a brain, are excluded!

I would respond that what positive results have come from people that are born with one leg two inches shorter than the other. Why judge people on the circumstances on which they were born. See, unlike you pseudo-religious right-wing zealots, I don't care what two consenting adults do, though you seem mighty interested. And I still don't buy the BS that homosexuals are more likely to be molesters...in fact, I would tend to feel that the opposite is true. Child molesting is NOT the same as homosexuality....your crap isn't selling here.

gonzo, how is two consenting adults having sex in whatever combination of gender not taking resonsibility for their actions? Whose business is it other than the two involved? I thought Republicans were against big government. You sound like you want the government inside everyone's bedroom.

The FBI, or the NCIC, has tracked crime for mamy years. The tracking has revealed, that most male-on-male offenses, have been committed by admitted, male homosexuals. I realize this is not a positive for the homosexuals which seek to ensnare the young. I think it revealing, that the NCIC reports that the AIDS sentence of death is increasing among the male homosexual community. Facts are more important than lust. Thank you

As far as positive results from the homosexual condition, I would say you should ask the friends and family of a gay person. I'm sure they will be able to tell you how much their friend, brother, sister, son, daughter, father, mother has meant to them in their life.

gonzo, you are posting lies and crazy bs. AIDS has been on the decline in homosexuals for the past 15 years. Please educate yourself. Your are taking reports and blatantly distrorting the results. For decades studies have shown that the majority of child molestation is done by "straight" family members. Please post a link to your NCIC study so that people can see the actually truth.

NCIC evidence? Links? Or did you hear it from the "Focus on the Family" network?
Ah, no nutcase will be happy without the "AIDS is the penalty for being homosexual" argument? NOW were getting somewhere. So, what about three-year-old kids who die of cancer or get hit by cars? What about the tens of thousands of children in Africa dying of AIDS? This is their penalty for what? This is what you call painting yourself into a corner....too easy.....next?

gonzo's just overly paranoid crazy. Can't reason with someone who is so obsessed and obviously latent. Quit hating yourself, gonzo. Embrace your homosexual within. Maybe you'd understand how so many people see good in the world if you would just embrace your biggest fears and get over it all.

gonzo, unless I get links with evidence, I'm done with you. You stated "fact", and I called your bluff, and now you just pitter-patter around with cute comments. So, put up or shut up. And, once again, you REALLY need to look in the mirror on your own sexual preferences. It would take a lot of the anger and misplaced unhappiness away....

Seigard. The National Crime Information Center, The CDCC, reports that the HIV infectuion is increasing among the homosexual community. The cause is known, but the incidence is increasing. Do you declare stupidity, or negligense, as an excuse?

One more thing, gonzo, could you change your name? Hunter S Thompson would roll in his grave if he knew a halfwit like you were using his moniker. You disgrace the name of someone who makes you look like a pathetic gnat.

OhMyGod-A troglydite has a problem with accepting the Govt. cheese. This troglydrite asserts his right to the Govt. cheese. Yup, he is right. The fact is not his, but the troglydrite that allows this stupidity. Are you stupid? Can you ote? Are you stupid?

Hey victor,
Before you capture anything you need to capture some "brain power,"
Ever notice those who can not support an argument resort to name calling and innuendo's. How pathetic. Your a sick boy Victor. Capture that you heartless creep!
Like we are suppose to feel sorry for a "couch moron" who cares less about the kids being slaughtered in Iraq. I don't think the men in black-coats will be coming soon.
Perhaps the men in White-Coats will be coming for Victor!
We can only hope.

gottobekidding, Knock, knock! Who's there? It's your brain on it's last leg since you can't think beyond yourself.
The guy who gave their lives enable you to behave they way you do. Sadam would have loved you!

Politico senior political writer Jonathan Martin, and other media figures uncritically repeated Sen. John. McCain's (R-AZ) attack on Sen. Barack Obama's (D-IL) spelling of "flack jacket" with a "c" in "flack," without noting -- as MSNBC congressional correspondent Mike Viqueira did -- that "flack" is an "alternative to the spelling of 'flak.' " Indeed, the phrase "flack jacket" with a "c" appears on dozens of military websites (Media Matters)

Oh, Victor...forgot something...about gonzo...he gets a little handsy under the table if you know what I mean...just be careful...and his knowledge of strange homosexual acts is strangely detailed and obsessive....other than that, he's a helluva guy!

Nice find, Ardie....yeah, no one that I have seen (Drudge especially...shock!) has ever done a follow-up that I've seen on this. Isn't it much more embarassing to incorrectly grandstand than to make a mistake in the first place?

Ardie,
And "ain't" is an acceptable spelling of "isn't". But go to someone who understands the difference and you'll be seen as "coming from the South". Flak is the "educated" spelling and Flack is the "uneducated" spelling just as "ain't". Our language is changing and understands the reason for the "alternatives" especially now with our "dumb-down" society. Just because a dozen military web sites use "Flack" doesn't make it the "correct" usage. There are stupid military web site that don't understand the difference. Just as "bling" now means jewelry, doesn't make it correct.

Geebee, don't bite me.... please!!!! Just kidding. Just think it out before you assume you know it all. I wake up every day realizing there's so much more to learn and understand. And that's what makes it fun! My best friends are folks like you 'cause I like to think things out rather than assuming. If we knew all the answers, life would just be a boring "cookie-cutter" existence. And I won't defend that.

Victor, I was just wanting to know why I am a "confused American". I don't feel confused. And you don't have to be a genius to know that the dipsh!ts in charge right now are taking us down the tubes. It's not rocket science. That I know nothing about.
Secondly, I could buy in to possibly seeing that 'flack' is a 'weaker' spelling of the term, but the DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE's website has spellings of it that way. I can dig and find the link if you need it. Besides, you (should) know and I know that Obama probably didn't even type up the statement..probably some 20-year-old intern. The real shame about this, in the modern American media, is the Obama's point was ignored. McCain made a disastrous statement saying that Iraq was safe in the Iraq market, when he had practically an entire division guarding him every step of the way. It was pathetic, and not surprising, pandering, and bottom-line, McCain got burned and was grasping for some way to save face...and Drudge came to the rescue.

Oh right they hate us for our freedom and democracy...
Geee...Victor Wouldn't it be Satan and Sadam who would like to see our kids hunted daily and slaughtered for ummm....our "Freedom?"
It is becoming obvious just who you want to protect, and it is not the USA, thats for sure.
Hey Victor, you true colors are showing!
One thing is for sure, as I look at the faces of those kids who are never coming home, and the children without mommies and daddies I'll be sure to think of you!
Sleep tight.

There is something more sinister than our politicians at work, something that has been brewing for more the any of us can imagine. Unfortunately few of us can see it coming. But, it's coming and I'm not sure we can deal with it. As our "global" society starts to become one, we will see extremist fight to the death to maintain their existence. It's interesting to see that those extremist carry a religious intolerance to it's followers will defend to the death. Are we ready to do the same? I know that answer and it amuses me since I know who will win. Remember Vietnam? Guess who won that war - those that lost over 3 million people not those that lost 59,000. Determination makes what's right even though it may be perceived as wrong. Try to make sense out of that.

gottobekidding, remember those families of the 300,000+ people who Sadam had slaughtered - they're never coming home either. And I don't sleep tight over that. I put in my time to help stop that type of regime. Yes, it's not ever going to stop but we can't sit by and watch. If we do, it will overtake us, the world, and we will live in a constant state of fear.
Freedom doesn't come cheap if you read your history. And I'll protect that whether it's the USA (which I have despite your despicable comment) or some other country like IRAQ.

"Our Global Society?" I never asked for that and I don't think these so called extremist asked for it either. (Did we have a vote one day? I don't remember the American people being asked?) it just goes to show that there must be another victim. Another to prey upon. Another "host". Yes Victor you colors are showing and more and more people are seeing through it.
Yes the enviable is yet to come. That is one thing I think we do see eye to eye on. Smoke and mirrors simply won't do it much longer.

Come on Victor, it is not those people you care about either. But we will never expect you to come clean...it's your nature.
It's not a matter of if anymore its a matter of when. I guess the internet is something they never counted on. Bummer eh?

I understand exactly what you're saying, and I'm not sure I disagree with your answer. The disagreement I have is that why would you want to try to beat a lunatic at their own game? You know what IS like rocket science? The Middle East. And to think a pair of numbnuts like Bush and Cheney (and you can throw in Rice, Rumsfeld, Powell, et al) can beat them at this game? Who are we kidding? It's a joke! If I'm a professional golfer, do I want to challenge a UFC fighter to a fight? You have to find a way to beat these people on your terms, not theirs. When were we successful in this war? When we could bomb targets in Afghanistan, where we knew the bad guys were. Why the F did Dubya pull back and go into Iraq instead of putting the kill shot on bin Laden and seriously further damaging al Qaeda??? There are several reasons, all of them bordering on treasonous, and at BEST purely idiotic. In order to prevent all of this from putting America on its heels, Americans HAVE to understand that another terrorist attack could happen. We should obviously do all we can to avoid it, but the fear is driving us to make stupid decisions, that have worse repercussions and losses than the attacks themselves! When we find known terrorists, there should be an all-out crazy azz assault on them. But Iraq? No freaking way. Should've been about 20th on the list. Determination alone won't beat terrorism. Throwing more and more troops at it simply will not do it. You have to be smarter, pick the right time, and strike tremendously. Otherwise, we'll be having this same, sad discussion five years from now, with no better results.

gottobekidding, a global society isn't based on votes, it's based on reality. Do you buy products from China? Is there a "real" American car? That's the beginning of a "global" society. No votes, just reality of population and communication. And yes, nature has set it up that there will always be a victim and others to prey upon. I wasn't called in on that "creative" theory since I would have set it up differently (St. Peter, pleaaseees forgive me). But, that's the way it is. And those that understand that and capitalize on that will win - reality.

gottobekidding, I saw the eyes of a mother who lost her son to torture - remember the teenage kids jailed because they opposed Sadam? Now you know why I defended that mother or anyone subjected to that type of horror. I doubt you would put your life on the line for her, so don't accuse me of not caring. You would rather be playing your video games than confront those who would kill children just because they didn't agree with Sadam's mentality. You can disagree with the Bush administration, but they won't come and put you in jail, torture you, and hang you in public. And over 3,000 of our soldiers have given you that assurance.

"You can disagree with the Bush administration, but they won't come and put you in jail, torture you, and hang you in public." OK, all jokes aside, this kind of argument drives me nuts, and I hear it all the time. "Hey with Bush, at least you can speak your mind in this country!" WTF??? In America, WE ALWAYS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SPEAK OUR MINDS. You guys act like Bush is a helluva guy for letting us do that. In reality, he's a POS for limiting our freedoms more than any president, ever, including presidents who had much more serious sh!t on their plates than him. So, please, don't take things that were inherently American, before Bush had snorted his first line of coke *cheap shot*, and act like Bush has thrust these presents upon us....

The internment of the Japanese during WWII was an extreme measure. But guess what? There were no reported instances of Japanese spies in the US during WWII. Yet, Naval Intelligence knew there were several operating on the West Coast. They were swept up in the internment along with the rest of the Japanese. Unfair? Certainly! Sometimes, when you are faced with separating the rat poop from the coffee in the can, you do not have the luxury of time. FDR did what he had to do, to protect America, given the best information available to him. Easy for the modern liberal, whose only knowledge of WWII are vague condemnations in history books, to fail to appreciate the threat of the time. It is being repeated today, by these ill-informed, left-wing zealots, whose only goal is to find fault with America. Their only religion seems to be "if it feels good, do it". FDR, and Harry were the last true Democrats. They cared.

I do note that 27 states of 28 have voted against gay marriage. It would appear that the vast media campaign to sanitize perversion has not worked. Isn't it constructive to note, that states which allow civil unions, and gay marriage, are states which have denied the right of citizens to vote? The fear of the perverts is real. Citizens object, only the bought politicians agree. Is it any wonder politicians have a rating less than used car salesmen?

I think it pertinent that homosexuals can determine where they eat lunch, their profession, the car they drive, but their brain does not work when they choose their sexual partner. Selective brains? Born that way? What way? With a selective brain? Hogwash. We are all responsible for our conduct. There are no exceptions. Exceptions are for those who deem themselves not responsible. Frauds. "A brain is a terrible thing to waste!"

"Born that way" is the ultimate crutch for the homosexual. If the homosexuals truly believed their depravity was normal, they would not need the "born that way" excuse for their behaviour. "Normal" behaviour needs no excuse, ergo, the homosexuals realize they need some excuse to "legitimize" their depravity. No dice. The homosexuals have brains, and therefore are capable of decisions. The homosexual deserves no more sympathy than a rapist or a bank robber. It is all about decisions, and responsibility for same. The homosexual lifestyle is simply a form of behaviour, controlled by a brain. Those who possess a brain are solely responsible for their conduct, there are no lame excuses. Sorry!

A shame to see people like gonzo39 go to such lengths to justify their bigoted, hate-filled loathing of homosexuality. Such ignorant thought processes were used to justify segregation as well, but thankfully reason and basic human decency won out in the end. Sooner or later, the gonzos39's of the world will fade into obscurity along with the Ku Klux Klan.

Truth is, the "born that way" crowd recognizes they are not normal, and wish to play the sympathy card. Sympathy is rarely extended to folks with functioning brains. The "BTW" crowd will have to decide if they are "normal", or afflicted with defective brains. The public, after the Catholic priest debacle, has little patience with the claim of the homosexuals as "normal". Most parents now realize the great threat of homosexuals in their school, church, or Boy Scout troop! The voters of 27 states have made their voices known.
Some things become clear after a few years on this Earth: Foxes eat chickens, dogs chase cats, and homosexuals molest children. Political correctness will not change the landscape of nature. Nor will the attempt by the homosexuals to piggyback on the plight of the black man. No wonder the black community largely despises the pervert who claims brotherhood. There is no brotherhood, or similarity, here. The blacks have been persecuted because of their skin color. The perverts have been ostracized because of their harm to society, namely, children. The NCIC has good records.

Addendum: Re: Tarc: >>>human decency? Are you telling us that folks who consider their mouth and rectum as interchangeable sexual organs are capable of human decency? Hawr, hawr, I would be interested in your version of human indecency? Remind me to not invite you to Thanksgiving dinner! Your view of stuffed turkey might be more than my family could endure! You may continue to entice converts to stuffed turkey!

The local newspaper just reports a local teacher, a female, has been charged with rape of an underage female student. Unusual. Most of these instances have been male-on-male situations, as reported by the NCIC. I guess the ACLU will oppose this case, as it does all others pertaining to teachers! Some things never change!

I note the homosexuals again have their panties in a wad, this time over Dr. Holsingers appointment as Surgeon General. His main travesty seems to be detailing the medical problems of homosexuals, while the beautiful people ignore the vast body of medical literature which supports his conclusions! Hawr, hawr. The beautiful people would have us believe that Rock Hudson and Liberace died of mumps! Alas, the world of illusion in which these people live, is augmented by a few politicians who would sell their souls for a vote. I wonder how these same politicians, who profess their faith, will defend their support of perversion and depravity? This race is going to get interesting!

local comments have called into question the animal insertion of the homosexuals. Do the homosexuals insist that animal insertion by homosexuals conform with practices by the ASCPA? Do animal insertions have the blessings of the homosexual community? Yes, Matilda, your uncle is strange!

Queers continue to be busted. It appears the right of Queers to be called homosexuals is busted. West Virginia calls them Queers. What is a name? Who cares? Isn't an onion, by any name, still an onion?Does a stink in Virginia become an attribute in South Carolina?
